I go four holes and realize I forgot to enter anything and have to swipe on my phone to catch up. All of this is to say, when I'm golfing, I'm golfing...not thinking about tracking or entering info into my watch/phone.
The metrics and stats are certainly interesting. Do you find that they actually help your game? If so, how? Real time looking at swing plane on your shots? Post-game by seeing what you may have been doing wrong, therefore knowing what to work on at the range?

The extent of my interaction while playing, is limited to less than 15 seconds per hole. Confirm score & # of putts and occasionally checking other data. You can be as vigilant as you want to be. If were to check everything in real time, you'd be at about 20-30 seconds per hole. You can do it while driving or walking, so it's not like it's wasting time.
I use it on the range, constantly. I'm always working on the same things on the range, Tempo & Club Face path. My watch tracks both, so I look at it after ever shot.
While playing, I use it primarily for distance inside 100 yards (estimate) and I'll sometimes check my Tempo & Club Path. I don't have the newest Apple Watch, so I don't get "wrist closure rate" & a couple of other data points.
Personally, I think the best data, is "trends". I can pull up the details of any round I've ever played or rounds over a given period of time. I can then tell if my putting is off or GIR's are out of whack. Same with driving or putting. I average hitting about 75% of fairways and my "miss" is equally divided between "left" & "right" ... which tells me, my club head path is reasonably good.
Knowing what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong, is huge. In the case of this program, there's no guessing ... it's real data.
